We are using alternative toilet roll more and more! This tough economic climate has been no
match for Fairway and one of its biggest growing clients Who gives a crap. In a time where preserving the
environment is paramount, it seems many have taken Who gives a crap close to their bum, by opting to use their
100% recycled toilet roll. This festive addition would make a great gift for Christmas and is a unique way of
‘giving something back’ by helping to support their continued charity work.

There is no way we can keep this quiet. CDL are overjoyed to announce the arrival of its
newest client, KeepEmQuite. A company who provide bespoke, handpicked, travel packs for kids. KeepEmQuite have
already taken flight, after winning the 2016 Small Business Sunday competition on Twitter, 2017 saw them become
a Thomas Cook stockist. KeepEmQuite will be taking advantage of CDL’s bomb packing facility as well as our
seamless API, which is linked to their own order capture systems. We are pleased to be providing a third-party
fulfilment solution to KeepEmQuite and are confident that our bespoke warehouse solution will enhance their
offering and help them continue the expansion of their company.

security CDL have invested a further £17,000.00 in the purchase and implementation of a new Kohler Emergency
Generator, this system will ensure that no matter what interruptions in the power supply occur all our MHRA,
Food and other temperature sensitive products will be secure in the controlled environment they require.

everybody a comfortable place to sit, with the help of the CDL Group you can now order a subscription service
